My Sold Listings

“My wife and I just sold our condo and bought a single family home with Takami Hamadani (We closed in August 2018). These are our 2nd transactions with her and overall we are very happy with the results of every transaction. Both selling and buying went very smooth. We sold our condo for the price we wanted and we were able to buy a house below its asking price. What we appreciated most about her is that she is kind and care about clients. She works hard and is very responsive, which made our transaction very smooth. We are happy every time we work with her and hope to have another chance to get a help from her in the future.”

“"My husband and I started working with Takami at the beginning of September, 2014 for selling our current house and buying a new house. She patiently listened to our requirements and concerns. She guided us through each step of the selling process such as Inspection report, remodeling, staging, house cleaning, listing exposure and so on. Thanks to her sound advice and seller's market, we were able to sell our house very smoothly at an expected amount in mid-October. On the other hand, the whole home purchase process was a very difficult experience for us due to the seller's market, our desired criteria, requirements and in addition, a limited time because we have to move out in the middle of December, but she held our hands throughout the whole process, providing vital guidance and advice, and was infinitely patient despite the difficult situation. We toured many houses almost every weekend and even during Thanksgiving holiday.Takami is very successful and always has a few clients, but we always felt like we were her priority. As she is very conversant with San Jose and Silicon Valley area and learned our taste and wants, she introduced a charming house in Willow Glen to us. Although we were unaware of the area until she mentioned, we liked the house and wonderful area very much at first sight. She delivered good news to us when we were very worried if the owner accepted our offer. We cannot thank her enough.She was always reliable, honest, accessible, very knowledgeable, and incredibly hard-working. We would definitely recommend her for your next real estate transaction”

“"Takami is excellent!!! I highly recommend Takami for not only her dedicated hard work, which is already outstanding among many agents I know, but also her understanding and genuinely caring for clients. She is far from aggressive and pushy, without which she can achieve a purpose because she is so bright and creative. She solidly responds clients' request every single time, and does her job thoroughly. She is a person you can truly trust. You will be most pleased to know her, both as an agent and as a person. On the scale of 1 to 10, I rate her as 10!!! "She's the best agent among 50 or so agents I've come across" is an additional comment from my husband."”

She always maintains the perfect balance of professionalism, good humor, patience, understanding and diplomacy. No matter what the obstacle is she finds a way around it. Based on our experiences with selling and purchasing several homes in different continents before this one, she has, by far, been the best real estate agent that I have worked with and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate agent."
